DEL.ICIO.USA new and different gig for Nigut
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Former WSB-TV political reporter Bill Nigut, who left journalism three years ago for high-browed culture, has a new job.
He’ll be director of the Southern regional office of the Anti-Defamation League in Atlanta. The ADL focuses on fighting anti-Semitism and racism. Nigut’s territory will be Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Nigut, a 20-year veteran of local TV, most recently served as head of the Metro Atlanta Arts and Culture Coalition, a public-private partnership aimed at bringing a little joy into our humdrum lives.

I enjoyed viewing Bill Nigut’s reports on Georgia politics. He is a great human being who exemplifies the best in journalism. The League is lucky to acquire someone with his talents.

Congrats to ADL for a fine choice in leadership. Nigut has a great deal of credibility in the community and those of us who worked with him on his Capitol newsbeat will be happy to see him back on the scene. Although these are tough states in which to do his work, he’s up to the job.

Nigut has his work cut out for him, given all the filthy ignorant rednecks that reside in his territory. Good luck, you’ll need it…
